Apple Remote Desktop The Second is Called “Apple Remote Desktop” or “Apple Remote Desktop 3.5” and has a file name Remote Desktop.app This is the one we’ll be focusing on. The first step is to download it. The web page is here which is basically a link to the App Store. It costs about $80. After you download / install Using Apple Remote Desktop you will have a Remote Desktop management screen that looks something like this: Next, on the remote computers you want to observe / manage / control you will need to install the Apple Remote Desktop Client (version 3.5.3 linked). After installing the client on the remote machine, make sure to also set the remote desktop / remote management “Sharing” preferences in System Preferences: Now on your management computer you should see the remote computer show up in the Scanner tab of Remote Desktop – at this point you can “add it” so that it will show up in … Continue reading →

Are you running a contest or sweepstakes an need a system to pick random winners out of a pool of names? You could take the old-school approach of writing names on business cards and pulling them out of a fishbowl, or you could use Microsoft Excel. Put the names in an excel sheet. add a column and put =RAND() in it. it will give a random number that is recalculated every time a change is made on the sheet. choose that column and click sort “a-z” (or z-a). it won’t matter because each time you do it will randomize the names.

AWS Marketplace includes pay-as-you-go products, free software (AWS infrastructure fees still apply), and hosted software with varied pricing models. CA Canonical Couchbase Check Point IBM Microsoft SUSE Red Hat SAP Many widely used open source offerings, including WordPress Drupal MediaWiki This certainly will make software as a service companies and providers – I’m thinking cheap web hosting for wordpress, for example, have to take another look at their product / services model and pricing tiers. You’ll be charged for what you use, by the hour or month, and software charges will appear on the same bill as your other AWS services. When you find the software you’d like to purchase, you can use AWS Marketplace’s 1-Click deployment to quickly launch pre-configured server images, or deploy with familiar tools like the AWS Console.
